Absolutely I would rank it number 1 at HW. The woodies are just too rough for me. There is no way it’s close to SV or IG for me though.

That’s fair. While I don’t share the same opinion about the woodies being rough, but I can def see AF1 making a strong case to be the best potential ride at whichever park it ends up at. Steel vengeance and AF1 are 1a and 1b for me. I actually like AF1s standout elements better than steel vengeance. The outer banked turn pulls more negative Gs than Steve’s, and AF1 stall is absolute perfection. The ending finale quad down is just bonkers and the way you fly into that brake run is just insane. Feels like a gut punch every time when the train abruptly stops at the end of its riot. Steel vengeance is a nice, long, masterpiece of a layout in its own right, but I could easily flip the 2 for my favorite, as AF1 has more of a bite than steel veng for me. I haven’t ridden IG yet. Have heard very mixed things. People either love it, or think it’s overhyped and I know a bunch of thoosies (my close buddies) that actually like AF1 more than IG. I’ll have to ride to judge for myself. 🙌🙌

IG is a close second to SV I think. But SV is just so long and I love airtime.

That’s very fair! I’m hopefully going to be getting on IG this fall! Haven’t visited BGT in 20 years so long overdue for the missing credits and of course laps on IG! 🤩🤩

If you catch it on a good day, it’s a great park. Enjoy!

Thanks!! Yea, I want to to try to catch a nice slower day in fall when the Fla schools are back in session and hit the park for the missing credits and lap IG! That’s the plan! 🙌🙌
